The elites’ words and actions suggest they think of people beneath their station in life, those in lower income strata or not part of the educated … [Read more...]
Climate-obsessed anesthesiologists numb to reality
Scientists at the CO2 Coalition say a fuss over the greenhouse-warming effect of anesthetic gases is much ado about something so close to nothing as be undetectable -- tiny fractions of degrees in temperature.

Climate Change Is Normal and Natural, and Can’t Be Controlled
The following is a guest article by Frits Byron Soepyan.NASA claimed that “Earth is warming at an unprecedented rate” and “human activity is the principal cause.” Others proposed spending trillions of dollars to control the climate.

Is the Bell Tolling for EV Mania?
Electric vehicles have been all the rage among politicians at least since President Barack Obama’s first term in office, but they’ve never really caught on among the unwashed masses, who actually want their cars to deliver them to their destinations in comfort in a timely fashion, toting everything and everyone they might want to take along, without blowing up while parked and burning down their residences in the process.In truth, EVs had been tried and rejected long before that, largely because … [Read more...]

No Net Benefit To EV Mandates, Gov’t Admits It
Buried deeply in the bowels of a 56,342-page Federal Register Volume 88 — along with an environmental assessment accompanying the Department of Transportation's newly proposed fuel standards — are some candid admissions that electric vehicle- (EV) promoting bureaucrats and subsidy beneficiaries aren't anxious for any of us to know about.Image: Creative Commons under UnsplashOne is that "Net [social-economic] benefits for passenger cars remain negative across alternatives."After factoring in a 2% … [Read more...]
